Closer

Standard tuning

Long synth/bass intro, but hey, here are some guitar chords to play along with!

             C
Well you thought you let go, but you’re still hanging on
             Am
Mother earth’s slowing down, she’s still spinning around
         F                  C
And we are getting dizzy
      C
I’ll drop out of the race for more personal space
             Am                                          F
Cuz the rockets we're in get so cold and I miss your skin
                           C
It’s just how I’m feelin'

           G                   F                           C
If you need more love, well you’ve got to get close to me
           G                  F                           C
If you want my love, well you’ve got to get closer to me

          C                                         
No unreachable itch, if you hemorrhage I’ll stitch
              Am                                                 F
You are tears, I’m a cheek, I’m a pail on your boat with slow leaks 
                                    C
Out to sea for weeks

           G                F                            C
If you want my love, well you’ve got to get close to me
           G                F                              C
If you want my love, well you’ve got to get closer to me
G                        F 
Oh, if you want my love

C                            Em7                   F
I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
                    C                          Em7            F
I want your kite strings tangled in my dreams all wrapped up
C                            Em7                        F
I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
                   C               Em7                        F
I’ll be the comets that are fallin’ from the sky you light up...
                C
Light up

                    C
You’re my shirt, I an arm
            
I’m the tick, you’re the bomb
                   Am                          F                            
You’re the L and the V, I’m the O and the E, and we...
G                                    C
Am I speaking clearly?
            G                      F                    C
If you want my love, well you’ve got to get close to me
G                   F
Ooh, if you want my love…

C                          Em7                        F
I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
                    C               Em7                        F
I want your kite strings tangled in my dreams all wrapped up
C                       Em7                        F
I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
                   C             Em7                        F
I’ll be the comets that are fallin’ from the sky you light up...

                C                 Em7                        F
Because I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
                      C                                       Em7
I’ll miss the shivers in my spine every time that we touch.
